Revelation 6:12-13.
Humanity in itself is evil, we don’t have the ability to do righteous things without God’s guidance. “And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” Genesis 6:5. The LORD hates our evil ways because it separates us from Him, our life giver. When we follow after Christ we become righteous just as He is righteous, for it says “Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.” 1 John 3:7. However, to follow after Christ we must deny “self” which is the hardest battle we’ll ever fight. It hurts to be corrected, to be talked down on, to be belittled; but it is necessary to build our heavenly character; without reproof how would we grow in Christ? We wouldn’t, it would cause us to die in our sins, but with Christ He says “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.” Luke 9:23. Seek God while He may be found, leave your pride behind, and get ready for what life will throw at you, but don’t become discouraged keep your eyes on the prize which is Christ and He will save you.
There will be a day when time gives way,
When heaven opens in Gods own day,
No more delay nor shadow of night,
Every soul revealed in heaven’s light,
Books are open before the throne,
Nothing hidden nothing unknown,
Every word and every deed,
Every thought and every seed,
And another book is open wide,
Where the names of the faithful abide,
Written not with ink that fades,
But by grace that never decays.
Do you remember the path you chose,
The silent prayers that no one knows,
The times you walked when none could see,
The quiet battles on your knees,
Every tear that fell in pain,
Every lost, every gain.
He has kept them all in love,
Not one moment lost above,
But one question remains that day,
When earth and heaven pass away.
The book of life, is your name written there,
Oh my brother, my sister,
Is your name written there,
When the roll is called in heaven,
Will your voice answer clear,
The book of life, is your name written there?
Many will say Lord we knew your name,
We preached, we prayed, we spoke your fame,
But He will say with sorrow true,
I never truly dwelt in you,
Not by works, nor outward show,
But a heart transformed below,
A life made new by grace alone,
And faith that clings to Christ the throne.
Nothing unclean shall enter in,
No cherished love for hidden sin,
Only those washed white as snow,
Will see the gates of glory, glory.
There is a fountain flowing still,
At Calvary’s cross on that lonely hill,
Where every name may yet be sealed,
Where every wounded heart is healed.
Whosoever will they come,
The call of mercy still goes on,
Before that final trumpet sound,
Before the King in clouds is found.
The book of life, is your name written there,
Oh my brother, my sister,
Is your name written there,
When the roll is called in heaven,
Will your voice answer clear,
The book of life, is your name written there?
When the dead in Christ shall rise,
And the living change before our eyes,
In a moment, in a breath, victory triumphs over death,
Then reveal what heaven has done.
Judgment finished, victory won,
And those not found within that book,
Have lost the life they never took,
But for the saints oh what a day,
Tears forever wiped away,
No more sorrow, no more pain,
No more death, no more shame.
Enter in, the Master calls,
To the faithful great and small,
A crown of life for all so white,
Eternal joy and endless life.
So search your heart while mercy pleads,
While Grace still comes, while Jesus leads,
Do not delay, do not pretend, for time is short it soon will end.
Examine yourselves the Spirit cries,
Let truth awaken blinded eyes,
Blessed are those whose persevere,
And keep the faith till He appears.
The book of life is your name written there,
Oh my brother, my sister,
Is your name written there,
When the roll is called in heaven,
Will your voice answer clear,
The book of life, is your name written there?
Is it written, is it seen, by the blood that makes you healed. When the King appears in air, will He find your name written there?
And whoever was not found written in the book of life, was cast into the lake of fire.
But today, your name can still be written there!
This law was to impress upon their minds that if sin never existed there would have been no shedding of blood. The blood was sacred. It symbolized Christ as the dying victim. The fat was used in the sacrificial offerings with the beasts, but was not suitable for human consumption.
The Sabbath was given as a gift to all humanity, but do we accept the gift that God has set aside for us? The sabbath is a sign to differentiate who belongs to God and who doesn’t.
“And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the LORD your God.” Ezekiel 20:20
“For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.” Romans 8:2
Everyone who refuses to give himself to God, is under the power of Satan. They may speak of freedom, but they are still under bondage with Satan’s devices. Christ made a way to free us from sin; however, our God is not forceful and gives us freedom to choose, but we have to be willing to accept and obey what He commands, because the Spirit can not force us in the way, it can only guide us along the way. Only if we fully surrender our will to trust His, shall we receive freedom from sin. “But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.” Romans 6:22
“and deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”
Revelation 13:14-18
Satan uses the Vatican as His disguise; however, he will soon impersonate Christ by miracles to deceive the people on behalf of the “image.” The “beast” represents the pope; remember the beast is a man v18, and his “image” is the Sunday law. All those who refuse to worship the “image” should be killed. To receive the mark in the right hand or in the forehead is not a chip or something we(humanity) can physically see, it’s representing either in THOUGHT of acceptance to the image or in ACTION of acceptance to the image do you set your fate.
The sabbath has always been a sign between God and His people to differentiate who belongs to Him. Eze 20:20. The big test will come to the world to test their loyalty on behalf of God’s Holy day. If we look behind the scenes in our world today we see it is already taking place…
-Pope Leo XIV is already misleading others to believe the sabbath is for Israel, and Sunday for Christians, don’t be fooled the sabbath was made at creation for all humanity; Gen 2:1-3.
-March 12th, Glenn Beck, published an article addressing what it called “America’s Sunday Problem,” arguing that Sunday sports and entertainment have largely replaced church attendance. The article praises blue laws as a means of restoring respect for the “Lord’s Day”
-A new labor law in Brazil, went into effect of March 2026, which will change how retailers can operate on Sunday.
-March 6, the Catholic Action Workers’ Brotherhood—a Catholic organization promoting labor reform across Europe—published an article titled “Defend Democracy, Strengthen Free Sundays.”
The list goes on…
There is so much going on behind the scenes and they keep us distracted with social media to keep us from finding out the truth. Let us not loose focus of what’s to come.
“Once saved, is NOT always saved”
Those who accept Christ, and in their confidence say “I am saved”, are in danger of trusting in themselves. “Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.” 1Cor 10:12. It is already made evident by Peter’s example of denying Christ, that we can still fall off if we can’t endure the slightest; let alone, the strongest temptations. “Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life..” James 1:12. Conversion is a DAILY self-denying walk. We should never profess to be saved and still cease to make advancement.
We shouldn’t fight against the Spirit that guides us on its standard, for if the law had the ability to shed blood, then Christ died without a cause.
The law can only point fingers at people, it demands death when broken. So instead of us dying, Christ died in our place, to place Himself under its condemnation for us, so that the law sees His righteousness as long as we are following after His Spirit; however, if we refuse and follow after the flesh(sin) we are then placed back under its condemnation. Christ did not to take away the law for the law is “holy, and just, and good” Rom 7:12; the law is God’s standard, that stands forever. (Psa 111:7-8; 119:89)
Lambs that were brought as a sacrifice had to be presented without blemish; which signified sin. Just as equivalent to us, we must abstain from sin “present your bodies a living sacrifice”. Our bodies are the temple of God and if we weaken the powers of the mind or body by wrong habits it will be impossible for us to honor God as we should.
The Holy Spirit guides us to pray, study the word of God, and witness for Him to others so that we may strengthen our connection with Him. His Spirit can only guide us in the way it cannot force us to do right, because God gives us all a freedom of choice; we have to be willing to accept (fully surrender). The more time we spend with God the more and more connected we become with Him, and less connected we are to this world and its customs. We begin to see the world in its true state of wickedness and will not have a desire to partake in what the world has to offer. We begin to stand out from the world the closer we draw to Christ, and the world sees this change wrought in us, not for us to boast. If we are truly living for Christ our appearances will change, if others can’t see the change in you, then there’s a possibility you never knew God.
This is the transformation that Paul speaks of.
Christ divinity shown through and they all fell to the ground. One man, laid them all out flat in a matter of seconds; yet they never even thought about asking what happened and how they all ended up on the ground? It is evident that when satan takes captive of the mind, you truly will not be able to see clearly, especially the truth.
This also goes to show that Christ could have escaped from being taken captive, from being slapped around, beaten, spit on, whooped, having thorns dug through his head and hanged on the cross with nails that ripped though his hands and feet, and yet He still chose to save us through it all. This is love. ❤️
“I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, Or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought forth; When there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills was I brought forth: While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, Nor the highest part of the dust of the world. When he prepared the heavens, I was there: When he set a compass upon the face of the depth: When he established the clouds above: When he strengthened the fountains of the deep: When he gave to the sea his decree, That the waters should not pass his commandment: When he appointed the foundations of the earth: Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: And I was daily his delight, Rejoicing always before him; Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; And my delights were with the sons of men. Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: For blessed are they that keep my ways.”
Proverbs 8:23-32
Christ has existed from eternity; He has always been one with the Father. “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” 1John 5:7. Scholars may put His divinity in simplest terms so that we “may” understand; “The Father is like the invisible vapor; the Son is like the leaden cloud; the Spirit is rain fallen and working in refreshing power.” Yet, even in this representation we are still so far from understanding His divinity. The Father is all the fullness of the Godhead bodily, and is invisible to mortal sight, and The Son is all the fullness of the Godhead manifested. The Word of God declares Him to be “the express image of His person.” Hebrews 1:3. The Spirit in all the fullness of the Godhead, making manifest the power of divine grace to all who receive and believe in Christ as a personal Saviour; there are three living persons of the heavenly trio as we see, each with their own personalities; yet they are still one, they are all considered equal, they all work in unison, and is beyond human comprehension.
"I have fed you with milk" the plainest; most simple truths, suitable for converts young in the faith;
"not with meat" the solid; nourishing, spiritual food suited to those who have made progress in a knowledge of divine things.
“For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” Hebrews 5:13-14
“9According to all that I shew thee, after the pattern of the tabernacle, and the pattern of all the instruments thereof, even so shall ye make it. 40And look that thou make them after their pattern, which was shewed thee in the mount.” Exodus 25:9,40
“It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.” Hebrews 9:23
Moses made a replica of the sanctuary in heaven, the shadow of directions for the plan of salvation. In the sanctuary we have..

“Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?” Psa 77:13
The same system (sanctuary) God gave to Moses is the same system we are still using up to this very moment. For God said..
“My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.” Psa 89:34.
So why is there a second covenant? Was something wrong with the first? Certainly not. We couldn’t uphold our end of the bargain. “For finding fault with them..” Heb 8:8. We were the problem; however, the system was perfect for the plan of salvation. All the sacrifices, and ceremonies were there to point us to Christ death, to show that He was coming to die on our behalf so that the system may go through Him. He planned to take the place of the penalty of the law for us, even though it should have been us on that cross, but instead he took the place of it, NOT to take away the law, but to free us from sin, not to free us IN our sins.
The law consisted of four parts,
-Moral Law = God's ideal (Exodus 20)
-Ceremonial = Concession (fulfilled in Christ)
-Civil = Concession (governed Israel)
-Dietary = Ideal (plant-based); Concession (clean meats)
✅ Moral Law = Eternal (10 Commandments) (Psa 119:89, 111:7-8)
❌Ceremonial Law = Temporary, pointed to
Christ (Heb. 10:1)
❌Civil Law = Managed justice in a sinful society
✅ Dietary Law = Ideal (plant-based); Concession (clean meats) (1Cor 10:31)
Jesus fulfilled the ceremonial law, revealed the moral law, and calls us back to God's design.
Christ became our High Priest (Heb 9:11) we longer need an earthly priesthood, He became the great lamb (Heb 9:12) that we may use His blood, instead of animals, planted upon us Grace (His Spirit; Titus 2:11:12) to guide us into all righteousness, and placed His law (10 Comm.) within us; the standard of righteousness (Heb 8:10-11, James 2:8-13)
The law stands forever, and grace does not cancel out the law, but was given so that we may be able to uphold it. The law and grace are inseparable. They work together just as we can’t have a cause without an effect, faith without works, or the body without the spirit, it would be impossible, as it says “Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.” Psalm 85:10.
God is long suffering toward us. He gives us a chance, after chance, after chance to accept Him; and yet some still refuse, or lay Him aside and consider Him not a priority. God has a mission to find and save all those who accept Him. If you choose not to accept God, you are also choosing damnation to yourself; when we separate ourselves from God we are choosing death over the life giver, we are choosing to live in fear than be protected by Him, we are choosing to be deceived then to be guided by His light. God being merciful is not forceful and allows you to take your course; however, when God steps away, satan steps in and brings seven other spirits more wicked than himself to keep you from God. “Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:”
“What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.” Acts 10:15. Peter went and interpreted these words to show that God was no respect of persons, but accepted not only the circumcised Jews, but also the uncircumcised gentiles. This was God’s warning that Peter was not to regard one as inferior to the other, for the blood of Christ could cleanse from all uncleanness. “And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.” Acts 10:28
“For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.” Galatians 3:26-28
“7 But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away: 8 how shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious? 9 For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory. 10 For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth. 11 For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious. 12 Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech: 13 and not as Moses, which put a vail over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: 14 but their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ. 15 But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart. 16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away.” 2 Corinthians 3:7-16
V7-8 it’s a question. He is meeting Jewish teachers in their turf. Since the old covenant regarding the law in stone led to death, it could not forgive sin, however; was still glorious due to Christ being in it. How glorious was the law of God that Israelites could not stand to look at Moses’s face. Even though its significance had faded away, because of us. Will not the new covenant under the Holy Spirit who gives life be more glorious?
V9 Under the old covenant the law could only condemn, not forgive sin, yet was still glorious; and more glorious is having the Holy Spirit lead us into righteousness.
V10 Even the ceremonial laws no longer retained glory since Christ made the law more glorious in us by His sacrifice.
V11 Ceremonial law ceased, yet; it was connected with God’s law, making His law more glorious in us
V12-16 The Jews would not believe in Christ. The veil they kept putting forward was blinding them from seeing the truth that they could not see that their sacrifices were meaningless. If they would have only accepted Christ the righteousness of the law, the vail would have been taken away.
